Be Doers of The Word

 



As Disciples of Jesus Christ we should not allow the turmoil of world events to direct our emotions or dull our hope. 
 
Governments will change, trouble will come, but our mission remains the same: Seek first the Kingdom of God and HIS righteousness. ~Matthew 6:33
 
"The most important is, 'Hear, O Israel: Yahweh our God, YHWH is one. And you shall love YHWH your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these." ~ Mark 12:29-31

BE DOERS

If the Bible is true (and we believe it is), then the most loving and eternally significant thing you can do for someone is to share the Gospel with them. Jesus said, make disciples, not church members. The Kingdom of God is not confined within the walls of organized religion. No Church organization has a monopoly on the Truth or a franchise on God. The Church Jesus built is a Body of Believers following HIM, not following a denomination or celebrity pastor.
 

"Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age." ~ Matthew 28:19-20
 

Three Ways Churchianity is Ruining People's Life

1. A paid clergy with top down Church government ~ Mark 10:41-43
2. Prohibiting women from participating as full members of the Body of Christ ~ Romans 12:4-8
3. Preaching a gospel of earthly riches instead of the Gospel of the Kingdom ~ Matthew 6:19-20

There are many other ways Churchianity is doing great harm. These three are to get you to think about what you believe and why you believe it.


Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. ~ Matthew 5:16
